Item 5.07.

Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders .

A special meeting of stockholders of Eldorado Resorts, Inc. (the “ Company ”) was held on January 25, 2017 in Reno, Nevada (the “ Special Meeting ”). The Special Meeting was held in order to vote upon the following proposals set forth in a definitive joint proxy statement/prospectus dated December 30, 2016: (i) to approve the issuance of shares of Company common stock (the “ Share Issuance Proposal ”) pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “ Merger Agreement ”), dated as of September 19, 2016, by and among the Company, two wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company and Isle of Capri Casinos, Inc. (“ Isle ”) and (ii) to adjourn the Special Meeting, if necessary or appropriate, including to permit further solicitation of proxies in favor of the Share Issuance Proposal if there are insufficient votes at the time of the Special Meeting to approve the Share Issuance Proposal (the “ Adjournment Proposal ”).

At the Special Meeting, the Company’s stockholders voted upon and approved the Share Issuance Proposal. The votes on the Share Issuance Proposal were as follows:


For	Against	Abstain	Broker Non-Votes
40,224,571	12,724	65,489	—

Because the votes cast in favor of the Share Issuance Proposal exceeded the votes cast in opposition of the Share Issuance Proposal and a quorum was present at the Special Meeting, the vote was not called on the Adjournment Proposal.

Item 8.01.
